I didn't realize that. That's pretty disappointing.

Any predictions as to what might be added/removed?

I think that Bowie's The Next Day will most likely be removed and replaced with Blackstar.

I'm kind of nervous that they might delete either The Bends or In Rainbows to make room for A Moon Shaped Pool.

Oh, and is it just me or does anyone else find it very odd that The Velvet Underground's Loaded and Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy are not included the top 1001 list? Including these albums would complete the perfect streaks of albums from their respective artists.

Kanye West Yeezus (2013)Chvrches The Bones of What You Believe (2013)Beyonce Beyonce (2013)Taylor Swift 1989 (2014)FKA twigs LP1 (2014)Adele 25 (2015)The War on Drugs Lost in the Dream (2014)Bjork Vulnicura (2015)Songhoy Blues Music in Exile (2015)David Bowie Blackstar (2016)

That's it? Ten new albums? Which ones were dropped to make room? (I assume The Next Day is one of them; I also have to assume that White Denim album is gone - that was one of the biggest head-scratchers in recent editions.)

Copying this post to a thread I started for the book in the Critics' Lists forum.

I will post the removals once I get a look at the book again in a week or two. And I know for sure that The Next Day is not one of them and neither is the White Denim album. The only removal I can remember is 21 by Adele.
